Happy Year of the Dragon!

I don’t know if it was because I felt the New Year creeping up on me, or I was reminded that my mom wants me to have another baby this year, so he/she will be “dragon-born”, but I fell head over heels in love with some Asian inspired prints at Joann’s this weekend. I can’t wait to make something FANTASTIC out of them.

Although, the projects will have to wait, at least 2 weeks. I know I don’t have a whole lot of readers, but as a public service announcement, I’m letting everyone know I will be taking a slight break from blogging, and posts will be slightly scarcer, since I finally (FINALLY, after weeks and weeks and weeks of waiting) got A Dance With Dragons from the library. The copy is for my Kindle, so unfortunately, I have a mere 14 days to read a bazillion pages worth of pseudo-medieval fantasy drama. This means I’ll be reading (or skimming, I won’t lie) until my eyeballs fall out of my head every night, stopping only for Downton Abbey on Sundays.

But never fear! With a baby shower coming up, my very first commissioned iPad cover sale, and all these new fabrics, I have project ideas blooming out of my ears, and I hope to share them with you soon!

I love the first fabric! Can you advise on where to read up on the year of the dragon? We’re thinking about doing some baby making this year, so I’d kinda like to know what your Mom sees in the dragon-born.

Thanks! Actually, I was looking for a picture of dragon this morning for this post and I saw an article in the Star Ledger that sort of explained the dragon thinking: http://www.nj.com/entertainment/index.ssf/2012/01/year_of_the_dragon_chinese.htmlor any horoscope page, or just good ol’ Wiki. Then there’s always some debate about the dragon head (early in the year) being better than the dragon tail (late in the year) in the sense that the front end breathes fire (?!), but unless you’re prego now, you’ve sorta missed the boat on that one. Good luck!
